fainting couch feminism

adj. : Beliefs and practices that coincide with the "Third-Wave" feminist idea that people's feelings and emotions must be treated as delicate and fragile. Common on university campuses in the forms of "trigger warnings" and "safe spaces."
A: I thought the ghost of Martin Luther King Jr. was giving the commencement speech for the university.
B: He was, but since he discusses real equality, a couple white feminists felt he didn't acknowledge the "lived experiences" of black people. They felt this was triggering so they used a hashtag campaign to get him banned.
A: But i though universities were where people went to have the hard conversations, work through them and better society as a result.
B: They use to be, but since fainting couch feminism took over, they're just places young adults go to be coddled like children for $40k a year.

Faint

Fainting also known as syncope is a sudden loss of consciousness. A person who faints is usually only unconscious for a few seconds if they do not ( don't ) wake up in more than a few seconds call 911 ( nine nine one ) , because something serious may be going on , or they are not breathing. Most times when someone faints they are scared 😨. This is called vasvougal syncope ( I think ).
